posRight Property

Sets or retrieves the right position of the object in the units specified by the cascading style sheets (CSS) right attribute.

Syntax

HTML N/A

Scripting object.style.posRight [ = iRight ]

HTML	N/A
Scripting	object.style.posRight [ = iRight ]

Possible Values

iRight Integer that specifies any valid floating-point number that uses the same length units as the right attribute.

The property is read/write with no default value.

Expressions can be used in place of the preceding value(s), as of Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5. For more information, see dynamic properties.

Remarks

This property reflects the value of the CSS right attribute for positioned items. This property always returns 0 for nonpositioned items, because "right" has meaning only when the object is positioned.

Setting this property changes the value of the right position, but leaves the units designator for the property unchanged.

Unlike the right property, the posRight property value is a floating-point number, not a string.

For more information about how to access the dimension and location of elements on the page through the document object model, see measuring element dimension and location.

Example

This example uses the posRight property to set a positioned DIV 10 pixels from the right of the client area.
oDiv.style.posRight = 10;
